“F”
Feedback Silencer
For “FR” models of the Powerpod, in addition to the Recording function on the previous page, there is also an onboard feedback killer. The
feedback silencer will effectively remove feedback frequencies from the main stereo output.
The Phonic feedback silencer found on the Powerpod FR & F offers 30 lters per channel. Each of these lters is either a “locked” or “dy-
namic” lter. Dynamic lters will actively seek and destroy frequencies. A xed lter will lock onto these frequencies. The basic difference
is that a xed lter will lock onto frequencies until reset, while dynamic lters will continuously nd and remove feedback frequencies until
each lter is used, then start all over again.
Operation:
1. To begin, simply push the FB button. The LED indicator will
continuously ash to indicate dynamic lter mode is activated.
This will continuously seek and destroy feedback without re-
moving the music or vocal essences.
2. Push the FB button a second time to lock the feedback killer
at the frequencies detected in dynamic mode. In this mode,
the LED indicator will light up steadily. Locked mode is par-
ticularly useful for professional sound engineers at rehearsal
sessions.
3. Pushing the FB button again will bypass the feedback killer.
When bypassed, the LED indicator will not light up.
Note: When feedback killer is active, the total program level may
decrease 2 or 3 dB - depending on the program content - which
can be compensated for using the main level control.
Push and hold the FB button for 2 seconds to reset the lters. This
will revert the unit back to dynamic mode.
The two operation modes (dynamic and locked) allow for exible
operation ideal for most applications.
